I'm struggling with Frye sizing and could use some help

I got the Veronica back zip short in 7.5 and it just fits (actually one pair fits--black, the other pair --brown--my big toe rub the top of the toe cap). Then I ordered the Veronica Slouch (tall) in camel in a 7.5 and its pretty big. If I add an insert it raises my super narrow heel up a bit too much. Should I try ordering a Veronica slouch in 7? Do different colors run differently? Id actually love a Veronica with stiffer leather and less slouch (like the only I tried on several years ago, was thicker leather)

I also have the Phillip Harness in choc vintage in a 7.5 and it's snug, mainly width wise.....yet the 8 is baggy even with an insert.

And then we have the Harness 12r in dark brown....the 7.5 feels suuuuuuper roomy on my foot (which is thin, not really narrow, just flat and skinny lol) but the shaft just barely fits my calf. Try a 7?

Help!!!! :D

I found that the leather that had more slouch ran bigger-- it just had so much more give to it. I wear a 7.5 in the Veronica short, a 7.5 in Veronica slouch in the dark brown, and a size 7 in the slouch in the whiskey. I ordered the whiskey in 7.5 first because that was my size in the dark brown that I have and it was huge, but the 7 fits well. If you want stiffer in the Veronica slouch try the dark brown (amazon has it listed as dark brown brush off leather). If that doesn't end up working you may want to try the Veronica back zip (the tall regular one)--they are stiffer and really beautiful.

What did you think of the camel color?

Thanks...I was thinking of ordering the dark brown, so that helps :)

I really like the camel color. Its darker than it appears online. I'm just not sure I love it for the Veronica.
 
Speaking of the Veronica slouch in dark brown....I see 4 different dark brown option

dark brown
dark brown brush off
dark brown stone antiqued
dark brown vintage tumbled full grain

Does anyone know how these all compare?
 
So. I am new to this site and Fryes...just bought my first pair at Nordsrom half yearly sale. Bought the Veronica back zip short. They're beautiful, but I bought size 9.5 which is what I usually wear in shoes and they are a little snug, but my heels lift a little too so I'm not sure if I should exchange them for a 10...anyone else have this sizing issue? Any input/thoughts would be appreciated! thanks and great thread :)
 
So I went ahead and purchased the Billy Hammered Studded boot from zappos. While I love them, I'm not sure I love them for ME. They're much pointier than I expected. What do you all think? View attachment 2273436View attachment 2273437View attachment 2273438View attachment 2273439
hmm I agree they are gorgeous, I love the color and the studs!!! but they are very pointy. If you will wear them, keep them cause they are gorgeous (especially with a white tee and jeans) but they aren't really my style and I know that they would just sit in my closet.
 
Hi, new here!

Just got Veronica slouch boots in dark brown and not sure if I should keep or return. I have skinny calves and feel like they might be too big on my legs. Maybe if they were more broken in and slouchy?

Excuse the kiddie handprints on my mirror!

They do look big. The first picture seems a little odd though, are you leaning back into them or standing like you naturally would? Have you tried tightening the buckles? Have you tried them with skinny jeans - leggings will probably always be a little looser since they are so thin.
